Description

The Certificate in Football Tactical Analyst is approached in light of the recent growth in the number of analysts and the size and importance of analytic departments within professional football clubs. Given the demand for analysts with a professional background, it is important to detail and prioritize each of the functions they carry out or may be expected to carry out in the near future.

In an increasingly competitive environment, the huge growth in the economic resources of professional football clubs has given analysts the opportunity to work in a more thorough, organized way and to contribute to improving team performance. This in turn has firmly placed this professional job profile within a growing labor market.

At the end of this course, you will know how to establish an analytics department within a specific football club; you will be familiar with the technological tools at your disposal and will be capable of using a holistic analysis process (self-analysis, analysis of rivals, training, matches, competitions, etc.).
